A college student was killed on Friday after being struck with an iron rod at a park in Malviya Nagar, South Delhi. The woman had gone to the park, according to the police, to meet her cousin, who was later detained in connection with the woman’s slaying.
The woman, Nargis, and the accused, Irfan, were allegedly dating, according to the preliminary investigation. But Nargis’s family had reportedly refused to consent to their union, which prompted Irfan to brutally kill her.
The authorities claim that Irfan had made plans to murder Nargis three days prior. He knew that Nargis frequently passed through Malviya Nagar park on her way to her stenography training since he was aware with her routine, according to the police.
He allegedly contacted her on the day of the murder in an effort to restart their romance. The police claimed that when she refused, he allegedly struck her with an iron rod.
The woman and the accused’s relatives had earlier discussions about their marriage, the police also disclosed. The woman’s family, however, rejected the offer after finding out that the accused was not working.
The 28-year-old defendant formerly worked for Swiggy as a delivery guy. He felt as though his chances of getting married were dwindling after the denial, despite the fact that his younger brother’s marriage had already been declared legal.
Senior police officers arrived at the scene as soon as they heard the news.
Police found a rod near the victim’s body and there were injuries on her head. Irfan is being questioned by the police in connection with the murder.
“We received information that the body of a 25-year-old girl was found near Aurbindo College in South Delhi’s Malviya Nagar. An iron rod was found near her body. According to a preliminary investigation, the girl was attacked with a rod. Blood was oozing out from her head. Further investigation is in progress,” police said.
